However, today she became a published author, and this I will share. Last fall she wrote a poem (all the 5th graders did) in her Language class. The teacher sent their poems into a poetry contest, and she--along with several of her classmates--had her poem chosen to be published in the "Young American Poetry Digest." The book arrived today, and she'll be very excited to see it tomorrow when she gets home from the birthday party she is at; a birthday party that started when they were picked up after school in a LIMO!!!
This is her poem, written in the Diamond Form style.
Summer and Winter
By The Princess, Age 11
Summer,
Fiery, sweaty,
Swimming, playing, biking,
Leaves start to fall and snowflakes call--
Shoveling, sledding, bundling,
Frigid, Freezing,
Winter
